EAVI develops and implements projects that reflect the association's goals and objectives as well as its international dimension. We are constantly involved in several initiatives . As illustrating examples, among those more recent are the EAVICamp in Modena, Cinelmotion in Latin America, and a Signature Campaign for introducing media education in Italian schools. Generally speaking EAVI implements projects with the aim of developing and promoting important areas such as active citizenship, democracy, social responsibility, media literacy and education.

Here is a selection of current and completed initiatives:
 |
EUMEDUS
EAVI is about to start implementing the project EMEDEUS, which it recently won in consortium with seven European partners within the Lifelong Learning Programme. The project offers an innovative approach by aiming to establish the correlations between media education through lifelong learning and media literacy levels. This is the first attempt of this kind undertaken in Europe. We expect it to be extremely valuable, as we aim at offering findings at a comparative level on lifelong media literacy education across Europe.
The project’s findings will be further exploited by the scientific community through the creation of an online resource centre at the media literacy education Observatory. The observatory will serve as a focal European platform to provide and exchange findings on lifelong media education. It will also be used by policymakers, teachers and media providers, who will be able to reach out for scientific findings in the field.
